Unlock screen
The unlock screen shows you basic info like local wheather, local time and a sliding line calendar (I believe that these must be configurable modules and that the unlock screen doesn’t have to show any personal data). If you have setup a home location then, one tap over the time or the weather areas changes the info from local to home and viceversa).
The unlock screen have two sliders and both unlock the system exactly in the same way, but there are one difference. If you unlock the tablet with the left slider the system assumes that you are left-handed, right-handed otherwise. This way the menus fit naturally to your behaviour.
You can unlock your tablet in two ways: Slide to unlock and Sign to unlock.
Slide unlock
When you unlock by sliding, not by signing, you access to the default public desktop. The default public desktop doesn’t contains any personal data, photos, email accounts etc. No recent items are shown in the apps and there is not home location. You can browse the web, access to the public projects system, public downloads and all the media, apps, tapps and control surfaces marked as public (by default) .
Sign unlock
Sign to unlock only works if you haver least one registered user. When you sign to unlock, the user desktop, private data, projects system, apps, media are shown. The sign is made by drawing a continuous line over a matrix of simple figures Like circles, boxes and triangles. You have to conect at least six symbols in a single finger movement (conecting the dots).
if you designed this, will a free public SDK be available?
I just have to say that is an outstanding piece of concept art.
Although Apple would not do this, no offense. They love their simplicity and rounded rectangular designs. I think they were high when the fan stacks were made.
If you said it was by Mr. Blurrycam, and claimed it was real, many many would believe you.
we’ll find out tomorrow

hey man, send me your contacts by email
We may have a job for you.

Very nice concept! Love it, with one exception. For the 2 outer thumb slides, wouldn’t the arc be reversed to allow for better ergonomics?
Yes, with the arc reversed, the ergonomics are much better. That`s the question. I put it this way so you can’t unlock it by accident when you move or grab the tablet.
Thanks for your comment.
I want a tablet with this OS
where can I get one?
Wow. All I can say is just…wow. This is miles better than what Apple released today, which to me just looks like a blown-up version of iPhone OS.

Would it be possible to convert or adapt this ui to a theme for linux / ubuntu or android??
WOW….really a stunning effect for a Pad. Do you ever think what would be the hardware requirement for some beautiful UI like that ?
